BEST's "BDS" Bag Dump Station provides a safe and ergonomic
design for the batching operator. Loading of the BDS "Bag Dump Station" is
simple and easy, in a totally dust-contained environment. 50 to 100 lb.
bags are easily broken and unloaded. A screen deck on the support surface
retains any paper, foreign products, or oversize lumps from entering
the process system.
The cover is maintained in an up or loading position via a gas- filled
cylinder. Bags are dropped onto a knife-like edge, to cut and split bag
into two halves. The air vibrator, shaker grate, cleans the bags in the
collector and returns all collected dust, back into the product flow
hopper below. Controls include a NEMA 12 twin pushbutton station for
starting the dust collection and/or the vibration of the shaker grate.
Rear access door
Access to the bag area is via a hinged rear, dust-tight door. Optional
features include a vibratory sifting screen below the bag dump station,
as well as conveyors and feeders to meter or elevate product. Note the
optional motor vibratory sieve unit below the bag dump area in the photo
illustrations.
